 Rating:  - HyperventilationHyperventilation over a non problem. Not a scholarly or unbiased look at the issue. Fails to provide any evidence of how global warming may prevent cold weather related deaths and improve agricultural production.

Al Gore's home uses more energy in one month than the average home owner uses in one year and the zinc mine that was on his property was once listed by an environmental group as the most toxic mine site in America and ... Read More Rating:  - Interesting but not completeI purchased this book despite my skepticism on human caused global warming. I figure i need to know both sides of the argument before I formulate an opinion. There were some great points made in the book and despite my belief that global warming is not entirely human caused, there are a lot of things where I said "ya, why not? Wouldn't hurt to reduce this or that." I did have a problem with Al's failure to show both sides of the coin when he pointed out statistics and used charts. ...
